should be a switch on the inverter. Don't turn it off unless it is in storage.

Reading through all these replies and it all sounds very familiar to me.
Purchased an Entegra Qwest 24R. It has a 1,000W inverter it is located behind a blank panel above the load center. The slide relays are there, the pass through transfer switch for the inverter the larger transfer switch and the inverter. However our first day out found out our Keurig type coffee maker would not work. After some investigation found that the inverter was 20' out and back from the batteries with 8 Ga wire. Way too small for the distance.
While I was investigating the inverter crawled underneath and found a rats nest of wires by the step I have to figure out what to do about that given its exposure to the elements it's not going to last very long.

I think the rats nest of thin wires under the step is all to power/operate the automatic step (at least it appears that way on my Redhawk 24B). There also are the thicker wires coming to/from the battery that aren't very well routed/mounted and hang down quite a bit more than I am comfortable with. Definitely could be a problem over rough ground.
I am just starting to research upgrading my inverter to a 2000 watt on my 2019 Greyhawk 30XP. I thought the dealer told me the inverter was mounted under the motor home....I'm going to lift up the bed tomorrow and see what I can find. I have already done the Batteries and solar...so I have lots of capacity....I am hoping to be able to connect the Microwave and kitchen outlets to the inverter so I can make coffee without waking up the neighbors.
I have 2019 greyhawk 30x, the inverter is in the cabinet across from the foot of the bed. You will find it behind the lower grill panel.
